The library system is moving to a new mobile app! The current library mobile app will not be available after January 3, 2018. This only relates to the library’s mobile app (used on phones and tablets). You can still connect to the library through your desktop, laptop, or mobile device’s web browser at https://ssf.bibliocommons.com/ Projected date for the new mobile app is February 1, 2018. We apologize for the inconvenience

Collecting and Preserving Local History

All items are housed in the Grand Ave History Collection. The History Collection includes local yearbooks, newspapers, phone books, historical photos and much more. While many of the items are available online, the entire collection of photos and documents are not yet scanned but can be provided as an in-library research loan with staff assistance. The History Collection is not open to the public. Please call (650) 877-8530 for assistance.
